When I got tires changed they said lower ball joints had slop so I changed them only thing is when I took off nut on bottom it wasnt tight really just above the pin that holds nut on. So thats how far I tightened it is this right or do I tighten it down so that its tight

It is torque at 81 just like it says in the book. PitmanARM has slight play and shocks squeak slightly. Do u think maybe need alignment or would needed alignment cause to sway or just pull to one side
